We present a novel adaptive optimization algorithm for black-box multi-objective optimization problems with binary constraints on the foundation of Bayes optimization. Our method is based on probabilistic regression and classification models, which act as a surrogate for the optimization goals and allow us to suggest multiple design points at once in each iteration. The proposed acquisition function is intuitively understandable and can be tuned to the demands of the problems at hand. We also present a novel ellipsoid truncation method to speed up the expected hypervolume calculation in a straightforward way for regression models with a normal probability density. We benchmark our approach with an evolutionary algorithm on multiple test problems.

Consider a family $Z={boldsymbol{x_{i}},y_{i}$,$1leq ileq N}$ of $N$ pairs of vectors $boldsymbol{x_{i}} in mathbb{R}^d$ and scalars $y_{i}$ that we aim to predict for a new sample vector $mathbf{x}_0$. Kriging models $y$ as a sum of a deterministic
function $m$, a drift which depends on the point $boldsymbol{x}$, and a random function $z$ with zero mean. The zonality hypothesis interprets $y$ as a weighted sum of $d$ random functions of a single independent variables, each of which is a kriging, with a quadratic form for the variograms drift. We can therefore construct an unbiased estimator $y^{*}(boldsymbol{x_{0}})=sum_{i}lambda^{i}z(boldsymbol{x_{i}})$ de $y(boldsymbol{x_{0}})$ with minimal variance $E[y^{*}(boldsymbol{x_{0}})-y(boldsymbol{x_{0}})]^{2}$, with the help of the known training set points. We give the explicitly closed form for $lambda^{i}$ without having calculated the inverse of the matrices.
The goal of this paper is to design image classification systems that, after an initial multi-task training phase, can automatically adapt to new tasks encountered at test time. We introduce a conditional neural process based approach to the multi-ta
sk classification setting for this purpose, and establish connections to the meta-learning and few-shot learning literature. The resulting approach, called CNAPs, comprises a classifier whose parameters are modulated by an adaptation network that takes the current tasks dataset as input. We demonstrate that CNAPs achieves state-of-the-art results on the challenging Meta-Dataset benchmark indicating high-quality transfer-learning. We show that the approach is robust, avoiding both over-fitting in low-shot regimes and under-fitting in high-shot regimes. Timing experiments reveal that CNAPs is computationally efficient at test-time as it does not involve gradient based adaptation. Finally, we show that trained models are immediately deployable to continual learning and active learning where they can outperform existing approaches that do not leverage transfer learning.
Bagging, a powerful ensemble method from machine learning, improves the performance of unstable predictors. Although the power of Bagging has been shown mostly in classification problems, we demonstrate the success of employing Bagging in sparse regr
ession over the baseline method (L1 minimization). The framework employs the generalized version of the original Bagging with various bootstrap ratios. The performance limits associated with different choices of bootstrap sampling ratio L/m and number of estimates K is analyzed theoretically. Simulation shows that the proposed method yields state-of-the-art recovery performance, outperforming L1 minimization and Bolasso in the challenging case of low levels of measurements. A lower L/m ratio (60% - 90%) leads to better performance, especially with a small number of measurements. With the reduced sampling rate, SNR improves over the original Bagging by up to 24%. With a properly chosen sampling ratio, a reasonably small number of estimates K = 30 gives satisfying result, even though increasing K is discovered to always improve or at least maintain the performance.
In support vector machine (SVM) applications with unreliable data that contains a portion of outliers, non-robustness of SVMs often causes considerable performance deterioration. Although many approaches for improving the robustness of SVMs have been
studied, two major challenges remain in robust SVM learning. First, robust learning algorithms are essentially formulated as non-convex optimization problems. It is thus important to develop a non-convex optimization method for robust SVM that can find a good local optimal solution. The second practical issue is how one can tune the hyperparameter that controls the balance between robustness and efficiency. Unfortunately, due to the non-convexity, robust SVM solutions with slightly different hyper-parameter values can be significantly different, which makes model selection highly unstable. In this paper, we address these two issues simultaneously by introducing a novel homotopy approach to non-convex robust SVM learning. Our basic idea is to introduce parametrized formulations of robust SVM which bridge the standard SVM and fully robust SVM via the parameter that represents the influence of outliers. We characterize the necessary and sufficient conditions of the local optimal solutions of robust SVM, and develop an algorithm that can trace a path of local optimal solutions when the influence of outliers is gradually decreased. An advantage of our homotopy approach is that it can be interpreted as simulated annealing, a common approach for finding a good local optimal solution in non-convex optimization problems. In addition, our homotopy method allows stable and efficient model selection based on the path of local optimal solutions. Empirical performances of the proposed approach are demonstrated through intensive numerical experiments both on robust classification and regression problems.
Modern computing and communication technologies can make data collection procedures very efficient. However, our ability to analyze large data sets and/or to extract information out from them is hard-pressed to keep up with our capacities for data co
llection. Among these huge data sets, some of them are not collected for any particular research purpose. For a classification problem, this means that the essential label information may not be readily obtainable, in the data set in hands, and an extra labeling procedure is required such that we can have enough label information to be used for constructing a classification model. When the size of a data set is huge, to label each subject in it will cost a lot in both capital and time. Thus, it is an important issue to decide which subjects should be labeled first in order to efficiently reduce the training cost/time. Active learning method is a promising outlet for this situation, because with the active learning ideas, we can select the unlabeled subjects sequentially without knowing their label information. In addition, there will be no confirmed information about the essential variables for constructing an efficient classification rule. Thus, how to merge a variable selection scheme with an active learning procedure is of interest. In this paper, we propose a procedure for building binary classification models when the complete label information is not available in the beginning of the training stage. We study an model-based active learning procedure with sequential variable selection schemes, and discuss the results of the proposed procedure from both theoretical and numerical aspects.
